What started as an exciting 18th edition of IPL should get the closure with a full match without rain interruptions. Monsoon in some regions of India has already hit way ahead of the expected timeline. According to the Accuweather report, rain is likely to take dominance in Ahmedabad on Tuesday, while the Sun will take a backseat as clouds may cover the sky during the IPL 2025 final match, starting at 7:30 PM IST.

Reserve Day on June 4 for IPL 2025 Final
The fans should not be worried as the rain probability is higher before the Grand Finale kicks off. On the other hand, the weather is uncertain and any shift in the climatic conditions may also lead to affect the match partially or entirely. However, instead of both dedicated teams and passionate fans, taking this harsh reality with a pinch of salt, they will get a sigh of relief as there is an additional reserve day on June 4 (Wednesday), matching the previous editions, if the match does not begin as per the schedule. Similarly, the IPL 2023 final was played on the reserve day at Narendra Modi Stadium, where the Gujarat Titans drastically lost the match to the Chennai Super Kings.
While the Qualifier 2 between five-time IPL champion Mumbai Indians and IPL 2025 leader Punjab Kings cleared the air that the 18th IPL edition would see a new champion. RCB and PBKS will be up for their fourth match this season, but these IPL franchises will face each other in the IPL final match for the first time. However, as the recent knockout match saw fourth-ranked Mumbai Indians worrying about the match washout possibility following rainfall, giving a jolt from the blue, similar doubts will linger for both RCB and PBKS as rain stepping in will turn the match dynamics.
In any case, if the IPL 2025 Final match witnesses rain on the reserve day as well, the team with the first rank in the points table in the league stage will be announced as the winner. As Punjab Kings topped the table, they will be ready to lift the trophy if the match is not completed on both days due to bad weather. As things stand, everyone will want a complete match to occur or a clear outcome for an equal competition, instead of rainfall spoiling the party.
